The Bee Gees' Robin Gibb spoke to BBC2 Radio last week and says he is making a remarkable recovery from cancer.  Media reports have cited liver cancer but Gibb says he's being treated for colon cancer.  He says he is feeling great and that his cancer is "almost gone".

Robin Gibb has been more forthcoming recently about his battle with liver cancer.  The Bee Gees' vocalist initially was denying reports of illness despite his extreme weight loss and emaciated appearance. He later posted on his website that he was 'recovering' from the illness.

Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees is battling liver cancer.  The 61-year old was rushed to the hospital last week with abdominal pains, and was treated for an inflamed and blocked colon, the same condition which killed brother Maurice.  Sources close to the singer say that his prognosis is 'not good'.  Photos taken recently show a very gaunt and underweight individual.
